What Causes Recurrent Horrible Urine Odor?

Hello! For half a year now I have had a very very very horrible urine smell..abnormally horrible, and it lingers. But the thing is, I stay hydrated, I workout everyday, and I know what the smell of my urine is when I take my vitamins. I'm scared sometimes to go to the restroom because it smells so bad. I know it's not a UTI...I even mentioned it to my gynecologist and he prescribed me medicine and it worked for awhile...but then it came back and hasn't been away since. I read where it could be a sign of cancer...so I figured it'd be smart to ask!

HI
Well come to HCM
Because of the less water intake such odor of urine is common and this may not be infection or sign of any malignancy better to drink more water even if you do not feel thirsty, at the most you can get done the urine culture sensitivity test, hope this information helps, have a nice day.
